As usual, the celebrations for Victoria of Swedenwhich he accomplished 45 years old on July 14. First an outdoor concert, in the park of Solliden Castle, the summer residence of the royal family, in the late afternoon of July 13, and then a moment of sharing with the subjects, who on the occasion of the The Victoria’s Day since 1979 they have been able to see the birthday girl up close and congratulate her on the anniversary.
A tradition fully respected this year, after the celebrations of 2020 and 2021, necessarily low profile due to the restrictions due to the pandemic. This year, however, everything was different. Victoria, eldest daughter of King Carl Gustav and Queen Silvia, traveled by carriage from Solliden to the ruins of Borgholm Castle (a journey of about an hour) and along the way she was greeted by many people.

A family that has always been very close, which nevertheless failed to save itself from the insinuations of gossip when the evil ones began to talk insistently about divorce between the hereditary princess and the former personal trainer, who got married on June 19, 2010. Blame for ever less frequent outings as a couple, but also for the hypothesis of betrayal on his part.

Utrecht Robin / ABACA / ipa-agency.net“We have learned that there are negative rumors about our private relationship. Allegations of treason and a possible divorce are spreading. We don’t usually comment on rumors and speculations, but to protect our family we want to clarify, once and for all, that the rumors are completely unfounded “, let the royal couple know on that occasion, through a press release. The pandemic, moreover, in recent months has greatly reduced the opportunities to lead a worldly life. If something really happened it would probably remain well guarded. Stockholm, after all, is not London, dirty clothes have always been washed at home and chatter about the royal family tends to run out quickly.
The harmony between the heir to the throne and the husband, then, speaks volumes about the veracity of certain insinuations. Between them the shadows would seem only imagined.
